How can I forget you when I remember the night,
The way your brown eyes gleamed in soft moonlight,
They looked at me, endless, like depths of the sea,
Where stars wove above us, wild and free.

Your gaze was a lantern, it lit up the dark,
Guiding me forward, igniting a spark,
And under that sky, with the heavens in view,
I felt in my heart that my world was you.

They shone under stars, a mysterious grace,
Like whispers of autumn in each leaf’s embrace.
They reflected a forest, serene and deep,
Where old trees stand guard, and shadows sleep.

In the middle of fall, when leaves burn with fire,
Your eyes matched the warmth of autumn's desire,
Golds, reds, and browns—oh, their colors would play,
A canvas of feelings too rich to convey.

Those eyes held a sorrow, a sweet gentle ache,
A forest alive, yet willing to break,
With secrets like rivers that run far below,
A depth unexplored, yet I needed to know.

How could I not drown in the warmth of your gaze,
Caught in that forest, lost in its maze?
Each flicker, each spark, a call to the soul,
A beauty so fierce it swallowed me whole.

And I could die looking into your eyes,
Where twilight descends and daylight lies.
They hold me captive, yet set me free,
In the sway of the trees and the rustling leaves.

I remember each second, each breath that we shared,
The silence we held, the unspoken dared,
For in that brief moment, forever was there,
Wrapped in your gaze, I found answers to prayer.

How can I forget you, with all that I know?
When stars cease to shine, and rivers won’t flow,
Still, those brown eyes will echo in me,
A forest in autumn, eternally free.

Under skies full of stars, I remember it all
A love unforgotten, an endless fall.
